Appreciation review, to CYBER GENIE HACK PRO..!! I sincerely appreciate your efforts in helping me recover my lost funds from "Bone Global Miners''. This well-organized fraudulent investment platform sent me an email on their promo investment offers, I felt life was giving me another chance to be financially stable after losing my job during the Covid-19 rampage. I had little savings, I did all they asked and my heart was filled with joy as I thought they were real and my ROI kept rising by the day. When it came to my knowledge they weren't real, and I hired CYBER GENIE HACK PRO, how they were able to recover my lost funds was really unbelievable to me. Now I really see why everyone was recommending their services and saying positive reviews about them on the internet... "cyber genie (@) cyberservices (.) com" "w.a- +-1-2-5-2-5-1-2-0-3-9-1"  Remain blessed.

In this week’s episode, Mark and Gael take a look at the sites who are acing the latest Google paradigm, analyze what worked for them, and adapt the business model so everyone can grow and thrive going forward.

#327 - 8 Ways To Adapt Your SEO in 2024

In the last two years, Ahrefs, a tool that many people in the industry would agree is the best tool for the job, has lived long enough to see itself become the villain and many now associate the brand with corporate greed. So how did that happen and is it justified?

No topic was off the table in this week’s episode with Tim Soulo from Ahrefs. Gael gets the 4-1-1 on their credit system, whether their search engine yep.com was funded by the price increase or not, and compares Ahrefs and their value proposition to the competition.

#328 - Did Ahrefs F**k Us?

When a talented SEO like Cyrus Shepard becomes a Google Quality Rater, you know we'll get someone who has excellent insights on how Google evaluates your site and where you fail to impress them.

So in this week’s episode, Gael asks Cyrus all the questions that matter to figure out:

👉 How much does EEAT really matter for Google and quality raters?
👉 Does Google give an unfair advantage to larger sites?
👉 And what's coming next from Google based on their recent updates to the Quality Rater Guidelines?

#329 - Make Google ❤️ Your Site

6 months after a series of devastating updates for many legitimate sites, and the best advice Google could come up with is "𝘜𝘴𝘦 𝘣𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘤𝘢𝘳𝘥𝘴 𝘵𝘰 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘮𝘰𝘵𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘰𝘯𝘭𝘪𝘯𝘦 𝘣𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘦𝘴𝘴" ?! 🙄  

Honestly, we're getting a little annoyed by Google's attitude towards all of this, and in today's episode, we tried to do what Google could not.

We give you real examples of real sites that are not only surviving, but thriving ✨ in the current version of Google, to help you plan what to do next for your business. 

These sites have won despite Google's relentless updates and we've tried to identify:
👉 what they do
👉 why they may be winning
👉 and how you can emulate them.

#330 - 7 Sites Beating Google's Algorithm

Did you know that Google is about to introduce a new web vital metric? 😨

Neither did we.

But this news did prompt us to take another look at our site speed setup, and we wanted to bring in a pro to help us out.  So in this week's episode, Gael chats with Brian Jackson - the guy behind the enthusiast site speed plugin, Perfmatters.

He's seen hundreds of site setups, this week he critiques our setup and gives you tips on how to fix your setup as well.

If you've ever wondered:
👉 if the number of plugins you use is cutting your site speed
👉 what the best CDN setup is
👉 what caching plugins you should never use...

...or even if you should delay or defer your JavaScript, then you won't want to miss this one.

#331 - Site Speed Nerd Roasts Our Setup 🔥

Google just released a fat core update and all the rules you know about SEO are about to change again. As Google has already started de-indexing what they deem to be low quality sites, content auditing has never been more important.

It's the process that might save you from an extinction event during the next update, or could resurrect your site if you've already been affected. Plus, it's the only process that's consistently shown results for websites affected by previous large updates like Panda, medic, spam and core updates.

So in this episode, we dive into what this latest core update means for SEO practices, and break down exactly what you need to do to curate content that will keep Google - and you - happy.

#333 - The Secret to RTINGS.com's SEO Success

As we come to the end of the March 2024 Core update, many things have changed in the Google landscape, and it’s time to start looking at where we landed.

To help navigate these changes, we wanted to bring a guest that’s out in the trenches every day - prominent and very opinionated character in the industry, Lily Ray 🔥

She hares a ton of interesting insights about SEO on social media, including a lot of original research.

In this episode, Lily and Gael get straight to it and cover many of the hottest topics in search right now, including:

👉 the visibility changes of pure content sites and how your business model may affect your visibility
👉 Reddit and Quora monopolizing search results and how long it may last
👉 HCU, and the divergence between Google’s guidelines and what we observe
👉 signals outside of the“traditional” that Google is giving a lot of importance to these days

We also take a look at specific examples - and they often break the rules - so don’t miss out on this one.

#334 - March Core Update Analysis with Lily Ray

Let’s face it.
Google is probably never going to be the same easy traffic source it has always been.

You won’t be able to solely rely on Google traffic to run an online business anymore, if that’s what you’re used to.

So the question a lot of people are asking now is:
What now? 😳

While nothing is a 1:1 replacement to Google search, in this episode, we talk about ONE of the things we are doing to diversify away from Google traffic: Meta ads.

We’ll show you exactly
 👉 how we plan and build a funnel
 👉 how we angle our ads, how we target them
 👉 how much money you should spend…
 
 … and a ton more practical details for those of you who are interested in taking action.

We’ll also talk about why we think it’s one of the safest ways to go for traffic and a bunch of other high level debates for those of you who are still on the fence.
